or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block

the ventilation holes.

• Do not install the unit near heat sources such as

radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct

sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or

shock.

• Do not place the monitor near equipment which

generates magnetism, such as a transformer or high

voltage power lines.

• When you install the unit to a wall, ceiling, mount arm

or operating light, consult to qualified personnel.

About the LCD Display Panel

• Although the LCD display panel is made with high-

precision technology, black dots may appear or bright

points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear

constantly on the LCD screen. And a color shade or

bight shade may appear according to a viewing angle.

These are structural properties of the LCD panel and

are not malfunctions.

• The LCD screen is made with high-precision

technology and more than 99.99% of the picture

element is intact. However, some of the picture

element may not appear or some of the picture element

may appear constantly.

• Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun as it can

damage the LCD screen. Take care when you place the

unit by a window.

• Do not push or scratch the LCD monitor’s screen. Do

not place a heavy object on the LCD monitor’s screen.

This may cause the screen to lose uniformity.

• If the unit is used in a cold place, a residual image may

appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction. When

the monitor becomes warm, the screen returns to

normal.

• If a still picture is displayed for a long time, a residual

image may appear. The residual image will eventually

disappear.

• The screen and the cabinet become warm during

operation. This is not a malfunction.

About the Fluorescent Tube

• A specially designed fluorescent tube is installed as

the lighting apparatus for this unit. If the LCD screen

becomes dark, unstable or does not turn on, consult

your Sony dealer.

On Cleaning

Before cleaning

Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC

outlet.

On cleaning the monitor

A material that withstands sterilization is used for the

front protection plate of the medical use LCD monitor.

The protection plate surface is especially treated to

reduce reflection of light. When solvents such as

benzene or thinner, or acid, alkaline or abrasive

detergent, or chemical cleaning cloth are used for the

protection plate surface/monitor surface, the

performance of the monitor may be impaired or the

finish of the surface may be damaged. Take care with

respect to the following:

• Clean the protection plate surface/monitor surface

with a 50 to 70 v/v% concentration of isopropyl

alcohol or a 76.9 to 81.4 v/v% concentration of

ethanol using a swab method. Wipe the protection

plate surface gently (wipe using less than 1 N force).

• Stubborn stains may be removed with a soft cloth such

as a cleaning cloth lightly dampened with mild

detergent solution using a swab method and then clean

using the above chemical solution.

Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, or acid,

alkaline or abrasive detergent, or chemical cleaning

cloth for cleaning or sterilization, as they will damage

the protection plate surface/monitor surface.

• Do not use unnecessary force to rub the protection

plate surface/monitor surface with a stained cloth.

The protection plate surface/monitor surface may be

scratched.

• Do not keep the protection plate surface/monitor

surface in contact with a rubber or vinyl resin product

for a long period of time. The finish of the surface

may deteriorate or the coating may come off.

• The fluorescent tube includes mercury. Dispose of the

monitor in accordance with the regulations of your

local sanitation authority.

Recommendation to Use more than

One Unit

• As problems can occasionally occur for the monitor,

when the monitor is used for safety control of

personnel, assets or stable picture, or for emergencies,

we strongly recommend you use more than one unit or

prepare a spare unit.

On Repacking

• Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.

They make an ideal container which to transport the

unit.

If you have any questions about this unit, contact your

authorized Sony dealer.

On Fan Error

• The fan for cooling the unit is built in. When the

Features

Compliance of safety standards in

America, Canada and Europe

UL60601-1 for America, CSA C22.2 No.601.1 for

Canada and EN 60601-1 for Europe have been obtained

for this monitor.

The monitor is designed for easy maintenance, with the

sheet switch, screen protect panel, etc.

Picture

Sophisticated I/P (Interlace to Progressive)

Conversion

The LMD-2140MD provides sophisticated I/P

conversion with Sony’s original X-Algorithm

technology. This technology combines the pixels above,

below and in the diagonal direction of the moving

picture part, and then inserts a natural pixel.

The direct result is much smoother image reproduction

for both moving and static picture areas.

Full digital image processing circuitry

As well as digital signals, all signals including analog

signals are converted into digital signals without any

deterioration in the pictures via a full digital image

processing circuitry.

Two color system available

The monitor can display NTSC and PAL signals by

connecting this unit. The appropriate color system is

selected automatically.

Auto chroma/phase function

The chroma and phase of the decoder are automatically

adjusted with the auto chroma phase function.

High-quality LCD panel

Because the monitor uses high brightness, high

resolution and ultra-wide viewing angle technology, the

monitor can be used under various lighting conditions

and in numerous ways (hanging on the wall, several

ways of monitoring the picture, etc.).

Because a color filter with wide-color reproduction and

LCD materials with high response speed are used, the

motion picture of the video signal is displayed clearer.
